Just to throw in another perspective, community based sites like
http://phpwebsite.appstate.edu/ would probably take care of the point made
earlier that feedback and criticism can overwhelm even the most dedicated
webmaster very fast (I know from experience!!). Instead of using an
entirely different domain name, the site could be located on a different
machine (I can even offer space and admin services, albeit on a slow
upload DSL line only) but under a domain name like community.vanagon.com .

just 2 Pfennige... oopps, it's cents now as well back home :))
